Chapter 1690: Frightened
Chapter 1690: Frightened (Page 1/1)
What Dong Wu didn't expect was that he did a good job of guarding against the details, but he failed to prevent the propaganda of these prisoners after they returned to the army, and when the prisoners told them about their treatment in Zhao Yun's army and the treatment of the corporal of the Jin king's account, the turmoil caused by the soldiers of the various departments can be imagined.
"General, why do you want to let these captives go, after they return to the city, if they continue to fight against the King of Jin, won't our side have to lose more soldiers?" Adjutant General Chen Wu asked puzzled.
Zhao Yun smiled: "Compared to the defenders in the city, how is our army?" Is it more reassuring under the tent of King Jin or in the city? It can be seen from the expressions on the faces of these soldiers when they eat the food that they must not be able to touch this kind of food in ordinary times, if you are them, what will you do when you return to the army? ”
Chen Wu is not a stupid person, he understood the key after a little deep thought, and hugged his fists and said: "The general is clever in strategy, and the general will admire it." ”
"As a general in the army, more aspects should be taken into account on the battlefield, even if these prisoners are left in the army, it is just a consumption of our army's grain and grass, the same is the soldiers of the Han army, do you want to kill all these prisoners, after they return to the army, it can make the enemy more shaken, and when the lord leads the army to attack Dunhuang, it can play a greater role." Zhao Yundao.
Chen Wu hugged his fists and said yes, following Zhao Yun's side, he did learn more things, and Zhao Yun also had a lot of training for him in ordinary times, which Chen Wu could naturally see.
Zhao Yun's growth, Chen Wu can be said to have followed all the way, from the initial entry to the White Horse Yicong, and gradually grew to the point where he is now, Zhao Yun's strength and ability are admirable.
For Chen Ying's death, Lu Bu is extremely sorry, judging from the news from the intelligence, Chen Ying has great influence in Dunhuang, and under careful precautions, even if the Dong family is powerful in the city, he will not want to murder him.
However, since the officials in the city chose to resist, Lu Bu would not be relentless.
"Lord, Chen Ying is dead, if you want to break through Dunhuang, there will definitely be a lot of trouble." Guo Jiadao.
"Feng Xiao, this is caused by Chen Ying's carelessness, if Chen Ying listened to the persuasion of Feng Xiao and this king, how could it end like this." Lu Budao: "Although the defenders of Dunhuang have thousands of people, whether it is in the strength of the army or the blades and armor of the soldiers, they are not as good as the soldiers under the king's account, and it is natural to break Dunhuang." ”
Guo Jia knew that this was Lu Bu's words of relief, but he was a little depressed when he thought that his actions in Dunhuang were lost because of Chen Ying's carelessness.
After working hard, he didn't get the harvest he wanted, which made Guo Jia feel a little disappointed.
"Fengxiao, life will inevitably experience failure, this time Fengxiao has done a good job, even if Chen Ying is killed by Dong Wu, the generals in the army must have thoughts about Chen Ying." Lu Budao.
Guo Jia nodded, failure is not terrible, the key is what kind of response will be taken after failure.
At this moment, the situation of the vanguard army came from the fast horse.
After reading it, Lu Bu laughed and said: "In this way, Dunhuang will definitely be able to be easily attacked." ”
After Guo Jia took a closer look, he arched his hand and said: "I wish the Lord a victory in the opening of the main banner and sweep Dunhuang." ”
"Zhao Yunzhen is the king's blessed general, with these captives back to the city, the defenders in the city will inevitably be in chaos, there are no bed crossbows, thunderbolts and other weapons in Dunhuang City." Lu Budao.
After the news of Zhao Yun's victory reached the army, the soldiers in the army talked a lot, Zhao Yun was a famous general in the army, and he was the sworn brother of the king of Jin, and his prestige was even more prosperous for a while.
When Lu Bu led an army of 20,000 to the outside of Dunhuang, the defenders of the city were shaken, and the army of 20,000 people brought great deterrence to the defenders, especially the bodies of these armies exuded a strong murderous aura, and the march gave people a sense of iron and blood, and the black clothes made the defenders feel strongly depressed.
After experiencing the tempering of the battlefield, the Chang'an army has begun to advance on the road of elite soldiers.
After Dong Wu saw the situation of the enemy army outside the city in the city, his face was not very good-looking, especially the discussion in the army in the last two days, which made Dong Wu have a sense of panic, the prisoner who was released by Zhao Yun that day actually preached in the army how good the soldiers under the account of King Jin were.
Compared with the general general's order and the impact of peacetime on the officers and soldiers in the army, the remarks of these soldiers in the army played a great role, and many soldiers in the army praised the king of Jin in secret, after the news reached Dong Wu's ears, Dong Wu was furious, and immediately severely punished several soldiers, so that the army gradually stabilized.
However, after this incident, when Dong Wu was in the army, he could obviously feel the difference between the officers and men in the army, that is, there were more doubts in his eyes.
The 20,000-strong army set up a position outside the city, and the soldiers of the wolf cavalry and flying cavalry showed off their strength outside the city, bringing more fear to the defenders of the city, and they naturally knew how strong the cavalry was on the battlefield, and the number of cavalry outside the city was at least 3,000 people, and the defenders were completely at a disadvantage.
The generals in the army were shocked, and Dong Wu was the same, he knew that the soldiers and horses under the account of King Jin were very strong, otherwise he would not have defeated the Qiang army in Liangzhou for many years, and after really seeing these armies, he had another feeling in his heart.
The strong momentum of the army outside the city made Dong Wu not dare to go out of the city to fight the king of Jin, he was sure that if the two sides faced off with the same strength, the army in the city would inevitably face defeat.
The previous raid on Zhao Yun's vanguard army had already caused the soldiers in the army to lose their previous morale, and some of them would be afraid when facing the enemy.
Some of the soldiers were even shivering, as they were recruits who had not been in war since joining the army.
Under the reprimand of the generals of various departments, the city gradually stabilized.
Although the strength of the army under the command of Lu Bu is strong, Dong Wu still has the confidence to defend Dunhuang, when attacking the city, the besieging side will pay a huge price, as long as Lu Bu suffers heavy losses, he can hold Dunhuang, if he can't do it, he will seek reinforcements from the countries of the Western Regions, and when it comes to survival, he naturally will not care about any foreign race.
Besides, the Western Regions Governor's Mansion originally belonged to the Great Han, and it was not difficult to accept asking them for help.
After making up his mind, Dong Wu's gaze at the army outside the city changed significantly, and holding Dunhuang has become the most important thing now, and losing Dunhuang means that everything is over.
